I really really hope we don't break the bank for Jones. If he's cool with a "hometown discount," that would be awesome. If we have to make him the highest paid DT of all time to keep him here, then let him walk. Please!

...he thinks Taylor's contract is for $25 per... That's all you need to know about his intelligence level.

Can we get two DTs for the price of one? Cause looking at the FA class, it’s one of the strongest positions

Could add Wilkins + a 1-tech Nose and then use the draft to get your WR and other needs.

Leonard Williams + Tart?

I love DJ Reader but his injury is awfully risky.

[RunKC]

The draft is also pretty solid in DT talent this year

We talk about OL and WR and QB being a strength of this class but I’ll tell you hwat, this is a darn good year to need a 3-technique.

Murphy
Newton
Wingo
Jenkins
Smith
Fiske
Dorlus
Boyd
Ruke
Briggs
Hall
The other Hall

They come in different shapes and sizes, but they’re GOOD.

his cap hit next year (2024) is $25M, dumb $$$$

This shit was over last summer. When he missed a game over it that's it. There will be no Jones this season in KC.

[Chieftain]

Despite what many here think, I am not a big fan of extending Jones. In fact, he should've been the player tagged and not Sneed. Imagine the haul you would get for Jones?
You extend Sneed and secure the best corner tandem in the NFL for the next 3 seasons. Jones was inconsistent last season. His play will only dip going forward. He would've gotten us a 1st at minimum. We would use that pick to get a guy like Newton.
Not a fan of giving big extensions to guys almost 30 who aren't QBs. It rarely ever pays off.

Who give's a ****... He's $20 per dumbass, and will be less than $20 per year during the 2nd and 3rd year of a Jones extension... Again, It HaS nO BeArInG On WhEtHeR wE SiGn JoNeS...

What would you have done at tackle last year? And did Pat get injured this year?

[smithandrew051]

I hope we sign Jones because he’s elite. Best DT in the game. We need him.

If we don’t sign him, he was never that good anyway. Better without him.

We would be lucky to get a 2 for Jones. Doubt if we get that and Jones would still be $33 mil cap hit that would all come in 2024 if we couldn't trade him. He's better off leaving and offsetting other FA signings and may lead to a comp pick if we can't sign him and spread out the cap hits. Sneed was the easy decision.

Based on your justification of Pat not getting injured, we may as well have signed him for $40M per year. They are going to have to restructure a bunch of contracts like Taylor's and/or trade Sneed to sign Jones. And that all depends on if anyone is even willing to restructure.

This is where I'm at currently.

What? If we were paying Taylor $40 you may have a point, but Taylor is worth $20 per... again, what was your plan for last year if we didn't sign Taylor? Sneed is 95% gone, Veech will pull the trigger for a 2 or even a high 3 if we need to sign Jones. They haven't even made some of their cuts yet. Again, Taylor's contract has nothing to do with signing Jones and those who think Taylor's contract is shitty are football stupid.

Would love to sign Jones to that. Zero chance he agrees to it though.

i would have taken my chances with someone in the draft. All I’m saying is the Taylor contract was not worth it if the Chiefs don’t do any more restructuring or trades. he was cheap last year, but the cap hit is pretty big for the next 3 years. the guy gave of pressures. mahomes’ scrambling ability made Taylor look better than he was.
